Psalms 119:9-16

TEXT:

[9] How can a young man keep his way pure?

By guarding it according to your word.

[10] With my whole heart I seek you;

let me not wander from your commandments!

[11] I have stored up your word in my heart,

that I might not sin against you.

[12] Blessed are you, O LORD;

teach me your statutes!

[13] With my lips I declare

all the rules of your mouth.

[14] In the way of your testimonies I delight

as much as in all riches.

[15] I will meditate on your precepts

and fix my eyes on your ways.

[16] I will delight in your statutes;

I will not forget your word.
